On Friday, November 17th, the staff of U.S. Congressman Mike Johnson (LA-04) will be hosting a Veterans Resource Fair aimed at connecting Louisiana's active-duty soldiers and veterans with the many services available to them. This event will bring together representatives from various veteran advocacy organizations that focus on areas such as housing, healthcare, job opportunities, and family support.

Louisiana's 4th Congressional District, which is home to Barksdale Air Force, Fort Johnson, and Camp Minden, also houses tens of thousands of veterans and active-duty soldiers. Recognizing the importance of supporting these brave men and women, Congressman Mike Johnson's team has organized this resource fair to ensure that they have access to the assistance they need.

The fair, which will take place at the LA Tech Academic Success Center in Bossier City, Louisiana, will run from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Attendees can expect to find representatives from various organizations such as Overton Brooks Medical Center, Shreveport Veterans Center, Northwest Louisiana Veterans Cemetery, Louisiana Workforce Commission Veterans Program, New Orleans Veterans Administration Office, Northwest Louisiana Veterans Home, and representatives from the Veterans Affairs Administration.

This event provides an excellent opportunity for veterans and active-duty soldiers to connect with these organizations and learn more about the services and support available to them. Whether they are in need of housing assistance, medical care, employment opportunities, or help for their families, the Veterans Resource Fair will offer a comprehensive range of information and resources.

In anticipation of the event, Congressman Mike Johnson expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "I am honored to host the Veterans Resource Fair and provide our brave servicemen and women with access to the support and services they deserve. This event is a testament to our commitment to serving those who have served our country."

The Veterans Resource Fair organized by Congressman Mike Johnson's staff is an important initiative that highlights the dedication and support for veterans and active-duty soldiers in Louisiana. By bringing together various organizations under one roof, this event aims to streamline the process of accessing the necessary resources and assistance.
